DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Embodiments of the present invention recognize that to obtain different result values from two nearly identical sub-queries, processes are repeated multiple times. Embodiments of the present invention recognize that duplicated processes of similar sub-queries increase SQL execution and process costs. Embodiments of the present invention further recognize that common table expressions (CTEs) do not provide an index, and often require a database to restore a temporary table as a work file in order to process a query request, which ultimately increases SQL execution and process costs.

Embodiments of the present invention provide the capability to reduce costs associated with similar queries and expedite SQL execution of data queries containing multiple sub-queries with sub set relationships. Embodiments of the present invention provide the capability to adopt previous temporary result sets generated from sub-queries based on shared sub set relationships instead of relying on full table access. Embodiments of the present invention provide the capability to determine sub set relationships between at least two or more sub-queries of a query, and combine common processes shared by the at least two or more sub-queries to enhance the performance of the query containing multiple sub-queries.

Implementation of such embodiments may take a variety of forms, and exemplary implementation details are discussed subsequently with reference to the Figures.

The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the Figures. FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram illustrating a data processing environment, generally designated 100, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1 provides only an illustration of one implementation and does not imply any limitations with regard to the environments in which different embodiments may be implemented. Many modifications to the depicted environment may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention as recited by the claims. FIG. 1 includes network 102, server 104, and one or more client computers, such as client computer 106 and client computer 108, and database 110.

In one embodiment, network 102 is the Internet representing a worldwide collection of networks and gateways that use TCP/IP protocols to communicate with one another. Network 102 may include wire cables, wireless communication links, fiber optic cables, routers, switches, and/or firewalls. Server 104, client computer 106, client computer 108, and database 110 are interconnected by network 102. Network 102 can be any combination of connections and protocols capable of supporting communications between server 104, client computer 106, client computer 108, database 110 and query optimizer program 112. Network 102 may also be implemented as a number of different types of networks, such as an intranet, a local area network (LAN), a virtual local area network (VLAN), or a wide area network (WAN). FIG. 1 is intended as an example and not as an architectural limitation for the different embodiments.

In one embodiment, server 104 may be, for example, a server computer system, such as a database server, a management server, a web server, a structured query language server, or any other electronic device or computing system capable of sending and receiving data. In another embodiment, server 104 may be a data center consisting of a collection of networks and servers providing an IT service, such as virtual servers and applications deployed on virtual servers, to an external party. In one embodiment, server 104 may be a database server operating on a legacy system, such as a mainframe system. In another embodiment, server 104 represents a “cloud” of computers interconnected by one or more networks, where server 104 is a computing system utilizing clustered computers and components to act as a single pool of seamless resources when accessed through network 102. This is a common implementation for data centers in addition to cloud computing applications. In the exemplary embodiment, server 104 includes query optimizer program 112 for combining common processes shared by at least two or more sub-queries to reduce costs associated with similar queries and expedite SQL execution.

In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 operates on a central server, such as server 104, and can be utilized by one or more client computers, such as client computer 106 and client computer 108, via network 102. In another embodiment, query optimizer program 112 may be a software-based program downloaded from the central server, such as server 104, or a third-party provider (not shown), and executed on a client computer, such as client computer 106 and client computer 108, to combine common processes shared by at least two or more sub-queries to reduce costs associated with similar queries and expedite SQL execution. In another embodiment, query optimizer program 112 may be a software-based program, downloaded from a central server, such as server 104, and installed on one or more client devices, such as client computer 106 and client computer 108. In yet another embodiment, query optimizer program 112 may be utilized as a software service provided by a third-party cloud service provider (not shown). In yet another embodiment, query optimizer program 112 may include one or more software-based components, such as add-ons, plug-ins, and agent programs, etc., installed on one or more client devices, such as client computer 106 and client computer 108, to combine common processes shared by at least two or more sub-queries to reduce costs associated with similar queries and expedite SQL execution.

In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 is a software-based program for combining common processes shared by at least two or more sub-queries to reduce costs associated with similar queries and expedite SQL execution. In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 provides a mechanism for reducing costs associated with similar queries and expediting SQL execution by combining common processes shared by at least two or more sub-queries. In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 detects there are at least two or more sub-queries in an SQL query. In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 determines whether the at least two or more sub-queries share similar basic data access processes (e.g., access paths). In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 combines similar basic data access processes together to avoid duplicated processes in order to achieve a desired results set.

In one embodiment, client computer 106 and client computer 108 are clients to server 104 and may be, for example, a server, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a tablet computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a smart phone, a thin client, or any other electronic device or computing system capable of communicating with server 104 through network 102. For example, client computer 106 and client computer 108 may be a laptop computer capable of connecting to a network, such as network 102, to submit one or more data queries to a central server to utilize a software-based program, such as query optimizer program 112 of server 104. In one embodiment, client computer 106 and client computer 108 may be any suitable type of client device capable of submitting one or more data queries to a database server (e.g., SQL server). In one embodiment, client computer 106 and client computer 108 include a user interface (not shown) for submitting data queries to a database server, such as server 104. There are many types of user interfaces. In one embodiment, the user interface may be a graphical user interface (GUI). A GUI is a type of user interface that allows users to interact with electronic devices, such as a keyboard and mouse, through graphical icons and visual indicators, such as secondary notations, as opposed to text-based interfaces, typed command labels, or text navigation. In computers, GUIs were introduced in reaction to the perceived steep learning curves of command-line interfaces, which required commands to be typed on the keyboard. The actions in GUIs are often performed through direct manipulation of the graphics elements.

In one embodiment, database 110 is a storage device (e.g., storage repository, database, etc.) interconnected with a database server, such as server 104. In one embodiment, database 110 provides the capability to store data accessible by SQL executions and data queries.

FIG. 2 depicts a flowchart of operational steps of a query optimizer program, such as query optimizer program 112 of FIG. 1, generally designated 200, for combining common processes shared by at least two or more sub-queries to reduce costs associated with similar queries and expedite SQL execution, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

Query optimizer program 112 determines a query with at least two or more sub-queries (202). In one embodiment, responsive to a database server, such as server 104, receiving a query (SQL query) from a client computer, such as client computer 106 and client computer 108, query optimizer program 112 determines a query with at least two or more sub-queries by scanning the query to determine whether there are at least two or more sub-queries within the query. In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 scans the query for at least two distinct data processes within the query SQL (textual language, command language, etc.), where the at least two distinct data processes may be indicated by query language, such as textual query language, command language, query type, and a transition term between the at least two distinct data processes, etc. For example, responsive to receiving a query for statistics on how many devices are related in a table and how many records are located in the table, query optimizer program 112 may scan the query and determine that the query includes two sub-queries evidenced by two distinct query types having differing command language, such as a MALL_COMMAND sub-query and a STORE_OUT sub-query in the SQL process.

Query optimizer program 112 determines whether one or more sub set relationships are shared between the at least two or more sub-queries (204). In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 determines whether one or more sub set relationships, such as common data processes, are shared between the at least two or more sub-queries by analyzing respective predicates within the at least two or more sub-queries. For example, query optimizer program 112 may analyze respective predicates of two sub-queries and determine that the data processes share common data processes, such as a first sub-query requiring a common data process shared by a second sub-query, and that differ in at least one aspect, such as the first sub-query differing from the second sub-query by requiring a count number of devices, where the second sub-query instead requires a distinct list of the devices, and in this case, query optimizer program 112 may determine that the two sub-queries share sub-set relationships (i.e., similar or same shared data processes) and differ in at least one aspect of the shared data processes. Where query optimizer program 112 determines that at least two or more sub-queries share similar data processes, query optimizer program 112 determines that one or more sub set relationships are shared between the at least two or more queries. Where query optimizer program 112 determines that at least two or more sub-queries do not share similar data processes, query optimizer program 112 determines that one or more sub set relationships are not shared between the at least two or more queries.

Responsive to a determination that at least two or more sub-queries do not share similar data processes, query optimizer program 112 determines that one or more sub set relationships are not shared between the at least two or more queries (NO branch, 204), query optimizer program 112 returns to detecting a query with at least two or more sub-queries (202).

Responsive to a determination that similar data processes are shared between the at least two or more sub-queries, query optimizer program 112 determines that one or more sub set relationships are shared between the at least two or more sub-queries (YES branch 204), query optimizer program 112 determines an order class for the at least two or more sub-queries based on the one or more sub set relationships (206). In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 determines an order class for the at least two or more sub-queries, where an order class is an order of one or more data processes within the query based, at least in part, on query style, type, function, etc. In another embodiment, an order class may be based on the one or more sub set relationships. In yet another embodiment, an order class is an order of one or more data processes as they appear in the SQL of a query as is known in the art. In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 may determine an order class for the at least two or more sub-queries by marking common data processes shared between the one or more sub-queries, combining common data processes of the two or more sub-queries into a single shared common process, and transforming the query (e.g., SQL transformation, transforming a parse tree, etc.) to include the differing data processes within the single shared common process, with the differing data processes arranged based on a query style, a query type, and a query function, etc. In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 may replace the original location of the data processes with a signed node.

Query optimizer program 112 determines an access path for the query (208). In one embodiment, based on a query transformation, query optimizer program 112 determines an access path for the query based, at least in part, on a comparison of a cost associated with dynamically generating a temporary result set against some sub-queries that may be reused by other sub-queries with a cost associated with the at least two or more sub-queries of the original query accessing one or more base tables. In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 may determine the cost associated with dynamically generating a temporary result set against some sub-queries that may be reused by other sub-queries, and determine the cost associated with the at least two or more sub-queries of the original query accessing one or more base tables, wherein the cost may be a performance cost, a financial cost, and a time cost, etc. In another embodiment, query optimizer program 112 may retrieve the cost associated with dynamically generating a temporary result set against some sub-queries that may be reused by other sub-queries, and the cost associated with the at least two or more sub-queries of the original query accessing one or more base tables from a database, such as database 110. In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 generates an access path for the single shared common process, where the access path includes one or more different branches in a parse tree for respective differing data processes of the at least two or more sub-queries within the single shared common process. For example, query optimizer program 112 may generate an access path that includes a first branch for a count value, and a second branch for a distinct list, such that query returns two distinct result sets. In one embodiment, responsive to a determination that the cost associated with dynamically generating a temporary result set against some sub-queries that may be reused by other sub-queries is less than the cost associated with the at least two or more sub-queries of the original query accessing one or more base tables from a database, query optimizer program 112 generates a plurality of temporary results sets against some sub-queries for the adoption of other sub-queries instead of accessing one or more base tables for results sets, thereby effectively expediting SQL execution and enhancing the performance of the query.

Query optimizer program 112 executes the access path during run-time for data accessing (210). In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 connects the plurality of temporary results sets and the single shared common process (i.e., the transformed query). In one embodiment, query optimizer program 112 supports the access path with the single shared common process for data accessing, and returns one or more results sets based, at least in part, on the number of different branches in the query. For example, typically a single result set is returned for a single sub-query, however, the access path with the single shared common process returns two result sets, such as one for a count value and one for a distinct list, as the distinct data processes for each are combined in the single shared common process as different branches, such that each distinct data process branch is executed simultaneously in the query to avoid multiple repetitions of the query to achieve the same result sets.

It should be appreciated that FIG. 3 provides only an illustration of one implementation and does not imply any limitations with regard to the environments in that different embodiments may be implemented. Many modifications to the depicted environment may be made.

By way of example only, storage system 330 can be provided for reading from and writing to a non-removable, non-volatile magnetic media (not shown and typically called a “hard drive”). Although not shown, a magnetic disk drive for reading from and writing to a removable, non-volatile magnetic disk (e.g., a “floppy disk”), and an optical disk drive for reading from or writing to a removable, non-volatile optical disk, such as a CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, or other optical media can be provided. In such instances, each can be connected to bus 316 by one or more data media interfaces. As will be further depicted and described below, memory 324 may include at least one computer program product having a set (e.g., at least one) of program modules that are configured to carry out the functions of embodiments of the invention.

Program/utility 332, having one or more sets of program modules 334, may be stored in memory 324 by way of example, and not limitation, as well as an operating system, one or more application programs, other program modules, and program data. Each of the operating systems, one or more application programs, other program modules, and program data, or some combination thereof, may include an implementation of a networking environment. Program modules 334 generally carry out the functions and/or methodologies of embodiments of the invention as described herein. Computer system 310 may also communicate with one or more external device(s) 312, such as a keyboard, a pointing device, a display 322, etc., or one or more devices that enable a user to interact with computer system 310 and any devices (e.g., network card, modem, etc.) that enable computer system 310 to communicate with one or more other computing devices. Such communication can occur via Input/Output (I/O) interface(s) 320. Still yet, computer system 310 can communicate with one or more networks, such as a local area network (LAN), a general wide area network (WAN), and/or a public network (e.g., the Internet) via network adapter 318. As depicted, network adapter 318 communicates with the other components of computer system 310 via bus 316. It should be understood that although not shown, other hardware and software components, such as microcode, device drivers, redundant processing units, external disk drive arrays, RAID systems, tape drives, and data archival storage systems may be used in conjunction with computer system 310.

 13. The computer program product of claim 8, wherein program instructions to determine an access path for the query, further comprise: program instructions to determine a cost associated with dynamically generating a temporary result set against some sub-queries that may be reused by one or more other sub-queries; program instructions to determine a cost associated with the at least two or more sub-queries of the query accessing one or more base tables; and responsive to a determination that the cost associated with dynamically generating the temporary result set against some sub-queries that may be reused by the one or more other sub-queries is less than the cost associated with the at least two or more sub-queries of the query accessing the one or more base tables, program instructions to generate an access path for a single shared common process, wherein the access path includes two or more different branches in a parse tree for each of two or more differing aspects within the single shared common process, wherein the two or more different branches return two or more results sets.
 14. The computer program product of claim 13, further comprising: responsive to a determination that the cost associated with dynamically generating the temporary result set against some sub-queries that may be reused by the one or more other sub-queries is less than the cost associated with the at least two or more sub-queries of the query accessing the one or more base tables, program instructions to generate a plurality of temporary results sets against the at least two or more sub-queries for adoption by the one or more other sub-queries instead of accessing the one or more base tables for results sets.
 15. A computer system for combining common processes shared by at least two or more sub-queries within a query, the computer system comprising: one or more computer readable storage media; program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, the program instructions comprising: program instructions to program instructions to determine the query with the at least two or more sub-queries; program instructions to determine whether one or more sub set relationships are shared between the at least two or more sub-queries; responsive to a determination that one or more sub set relationships are shared between the at least two or more sub-queries, program instructions to determine an order class for the at least two or more sub-queries based on the one or more sub set relationships; program instruction to determine an access path for the query; and program instructions to execute the access path during run-time for data accessing.
 16. The computer system of claim 15, wherein program instructions to determine the query with the at least two or more sub-queries, further comprise: program instructions to scan the query to determine whether there are at least two or more sub-queries within the query.
 17. The computer system of claim 15, wherein program instructions to determine whether one or more sub set relationships are shared between the at least two or more sub-queries, further comprise: program instructions to determine whether the at least two or more sub-queries share a common data process and differ in at least one aspect of the common data process, wherein determining includes analyzing one or more respective predicates of the at least two or more sub-queries.
 18. The computer system of claim 17, further comprising: responsive to a determination that the at least two or more sub-queries share a common data process and differ in at least one aspect of the common data process, program instructions to determine one or more sub set relationships are shared between the at least two or more sub-queries; and responsive to a determination that the at least two or more sub-queries do not share a common data process and do not differ in at least one aspect of the common data process, program instructions to determine one or more sub set relationships are not shared between the at least two or more sub-queries.
 19. The computer system of claim 15, wherein program instructions to determine an order class, further comprise at least one of: program instructions to mark one or more common data processes shared between the at least two or more sub-queries; program instructions to combine the one or more common data processes of the at least two or more sub-queries into a single shared common process; program instructions to transform the query to include one or more differing aspects within the single shared common process, with the one or more differing aspects arranged based, at least in part, on one or more of: a query style, a query type, and a query function; and program instructions to replace an original location of the one or more common data processes with a signed node.
 20. The computer system of claim 15, wherein program instructions to determine an access path for the query, further comprise: program instructions to determine a cost associated with dynamically generating a temporary result set against some sub-queries that may be reused by one or more other sub-queries; program instructions to determine a cost associated with the at least two or more sub-queries of the query accessing one or more base tables; and responsive to a determination that the cost associated with dynamically generating the temporary result set against some sub-queries that may be reused by the one or more other sub-queries is less than the cost associated with the at least two or more sub-queries of the query accessing the one or more base tables, program instructions to generate an access path for a single shared common process, wherein the access path includes two or more different branches in a parse tree for each of two or more differing aspects within the single shared common process, wherein the two or more different branches return two or more results sets.
